- Best known as the screaming frat-bully Douglas Neidermeyer in Animal House which he later parodyed for the Twister Sister videos "We're Not Gonna Take It" and "I Wanna Rock"
- Played the father in the intro to the Twisted Sister music video "We're Not Gonna Take It," reprising his sadistic, saliva-spraying ROTC "Neidermeyer" persona and line from Ich glaub', mich tritt ein Pferd (1978), "You're all worthless and weak!".
- Lied about his ability to ride horses in order to get the role of Neidermeyer in Ich glaub', mich tritt ein Pferd (1978). After he got the part, he took horseback riding lessons.
- Is incorrectly listed as the brother of Laurie Metcalf by some sources. They are not related.
- Featured as a high school teacher in the Twisted Sister music video for "I Wanna Rock". Also reprising his mean persona, ironically the principal is played by Stephen Furst who was "Flounder" in the movie Ich glaub', mich tritt ein Pferd (1978).
- Had recurring roles as "The Maestro" on Seinfeld (1989) and "The Master" on Buffy - Im Bann der Dämonen (1997). "Maestro" is Italian for "Master".
- [on if he considers himself a Method actor] Oh, sure. I mean, everyone is a Method actor. Everybody has their own method. Some people play cards all the time. Some people, you know, hang out at the crafts service table. My method is to immerse myself in the character as much as possible ... 24/7. If I can.
